Walking On Rails

(by Michael Grimes)



In a room in the back

Is the hand of a man

He can get what you need

He does it fast as he can



When you step on the street

And you got what you came for

You got to scare up the money

Because you'll always need more



Demons and devils and a hundred dollar bill

Ride the rail to the scale, but you never get your fill

You never saw it coming till the knock on your door

When the devil comes in to even the score



I heard they're looking for you

Overheard what they said

If you don't get the money

You'll be walking round dead



Demons and devils and a hundred dollar bill

Ride the rail to the scale, but you never get your fill

You never saw it coming till the knock on your door

When the devil comes in to even the score



Demons and devils and a hundred dollar bill

Ride the rail to the scale, but you never get your fill

You never saw it coming till the knock on your door

When the devil comes in to even the score



In a room in the back

Is the hand of the man

With his finger on the trigger

It goes according to plan
